10 Visually-Appealing Business WordPress Themes

For over a decade WordPress has proven to be one of the most popular and reliable platforms for blogging. But did you know WordPress can also be used for constructing professional websites for the corporate world?

Because WordPress is such a powerful content management system, it comes as no surprise that businesses and CMS websites have turned to WordPress as a way to showcase their products and services. But, can you utilize any WordPress theme to promote your business online?

While you could any of the many WordPress themes available, it is quite easy to find a theme specifically designed with business owners in mind.

What Exactly is a “Business Theme”?

That’s not to say a business theme will not contain blogging elements to it. It means the usual “latest posts” section won’t consume as much of the page. In fact, there may not even be any “latest posts” visible until after the fold.

A business theme will instead devote a majority of the above the fold area to a sort of billboard used to inform customers about who your business is and what your business has to offer.

Besides showing customers what your business does, WordPress business themes are one of the best ways to communicate and engage with an intended audience.

Without further ado, here are the best business WordPress themes – in no particular order – based on quality, user reviews, and the amount of valuable features.
